Product details
Overview
NLU2GU04AMX1TCG from onsemi is a dual unbuffered CMOS inverter optimized for high-speed digital signal inversion with 2.5 ns typical propagation delay at 5.0 V, overvoltage-tolerant I/O up to 7 V, and operation across −55°C to +125°C. It serves in oscillator circuits, pulse shaping, and high-impedance amplifier interfaces where low power and small footprint are critical.
For engineers reviewing the NLU2GU04AMX1TCG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, package dimensions, functional alternatives, and design-specific guidance for industrial timing, sensor interface, and space-constrained logic-level translation.
Technical Context
The NLU2GU04AMX1TCG implements two independent unbuffered inverter stages in a single ultra-small UDFN6 package (1.45 mm × 1.0 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), enabling minimal board area usage without internal buffering-preserving sharp edge fidelity for clock and waveform shaping applications. Its input and output structures are designed for overvoltage tolerance, allowing safe interfacing with signals exceeding VCC up to 7 V regardless of supply voltage.
It operates across 1.65 V to 5.5 V supply range with balanced tPLH/tPHL delays, supports ±12.5 mA output drive, and features power-down protection on all inputs-ensuring robustness during partial power sequencing or hot-insertion scenarios in embedded control systems.

Applications
| Automotive Sensor Interface | Industrial Pulse Shaping |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Level-shifting and inverting Hall-effect or crankshaft position sensor outputs before feeding to an MCU timer input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual inverter providing noise-immune signal inversion and fast edge restoration for accurate timing capture. Use Value: Overvoltage tolerance allows direct connection to 5 V sensor rails while operating from 3.3 V MCU supply-no level shifter required. | Use Scenario: Converting slow-rise microcontroller GPIO outputs into clean, symmetrical square waves for gate drivers or test equipment triggers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unbuffered inverter sharpening edges and reducing jitter in pulse generation chains. Use Value: 2.5 ns typical tPD ensures sub-nanosecond edge alignment across dual channels-improving timing margin in synchronous systems. |
| Low-Power Oscillator Core | Compact Logic Translation |
Use Scenario: Forming Pierce oscillator with external crystal or ceramic resonator in space-constrained remote monitoring nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One inverter stage used as gain element in feedback loop; second stage provides buffered output inversion. Use Value: Ultra-low ICC (1 µA max) extends battery life in coin-cell-powered devices while maintaining stable oscillation at 1–10 MHz. | Use Scenario: Translating 1.8 V logic outputs to 3.3 V compatible levels for FPGA configuration or ADC interface without dedicated translators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter acting as passive level translator via VCC-referenced output swing and overvoltage-tolerant input.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC2G04DBVR | Buffered architecture; 3.7 ns tPD @ 3.3 V; no OVT-max VIN = VCC + 0.5 V. | Requires external clamping for >3.3 V inputs; less suitable for mixed-voltage sensor front-ends. | Select when strict 3.3 V-only operation and slightly higher drive (±24 mA) are prioritized over size and overvoltage safety. |
| 74LVC2GU04GW,125 | Unbuffered; same 2.5 ns tPD @ 5 V; UDFN6 (1.2 × 1.0 mm); OVT support confirmed. | Smaller footprint (0.2 mm shorter); identical functional behavior but different marking and MSL rating (Level 3). | Choose for tighter board space constraints where 0.25 mm length reduction matters and MSL-3 handling is acceptable. |
Compared with SN74LVC2G04DBVR and 74LVC2GU04GW,125, the NLU2GU04AMX1TCG uniquely combines ultra-small 1.45 × 1.0 mm UDFN6 packaging, guaranteed 7 V overvoltage tolerance on all pins, and unbuffered speed-making it optimal for miniaturized, mixed-voltage industrial and automotive signal conditioning where layout area and interface robustness are co-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum supply voltage for NLU2GU04AMX1TCG?
The NLU2GU04AMX1TCG supports a DC supply voltage range of −0.5 V to +7.0 V, with recommended operation between 1.65 V and 5.5 V. This wide absolute maximum rating enables robust handling of supply transients and simplifies design in noisy environments where rail overshoot may occur. The device remains functional and non-damaging within this full range, as verified per onsemi's Maximum Ratings table.
Does NLU2GU04AMX1TCG support overvoltage-tolerant inputs when VCC = 1.8 V?
Yes, NLU2GU04AMX1TCG maintains overvoltage-tolerant (OVT) inputs and outputs across its entire specified VCC range (1.65 V to 5.5 V), allowing safe application of signals up to +7.0 V regardless of supply voltage. This capability is intrinsic to its input/output structure and is explicitly validated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section-enabling direct interfacing with 5 V sensors or legacy buses even when powered from 1.8 V.
What is the package type and dimensions of NLU2GU04AMX1TCG?
NLU2GU04AMX1TCG uses the UDFN6 package (Case 517AQ), measuring 1.45 mm × 1.0 mm with 0.5 mm pitch and an exposed thermal pad. Its footprint is documented in onsemi's Package Dimensions drawing on page 7 of the NLU2GU04/D datasheet. This ultra-compact outline reduces PCB area by over 50% compared to SOIC-8 equivalents-ideal for wearables and miniaturized industrial modules.
Can NLU2GU04AMX1TCG be used in oscillator circuits?
Yes, NLU2GU04AMX1TCG is explicitly recommended for oscillator applications per its official datasheet. Its unbuffered inverter architecture, low propagation delay (2.5 ns typ), and stable performance across −55°C to +125°C make it suitable for Pierce-type crystal oscillators and RC-based timing generators. One inverter stage provides gain while the second can buffer or invert the output-enabling compact, low-power clock sources in space-constrained designs.
Is NLU2GU04AMX1TCG RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, NLU2GU04AMX1TCG is a Pb-free device compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. This is confirmed in the "Ordering Information" table and "Features" section of the official NLU2GU04/D datasheet, which states "These are Pb−Free Devices." The part carries the "MUTCG" or "MX1TCG" suffix denoting lead-free, halogen-free, and green-compliant packaging-meeting environmental requirements for global industrial and automotive deployment.
